How does this university use SAT scores?
Manchester lists SAT 1290 as a GCSE-equivalent option. Its A-level-equivalent route separately needs diploma GPA 3.0 and AP or college-level subject evidence; SAT 1290 alone does not meet it.
SAT reference and qualification combination
| Route type | SAT reference | Qualification context |
|---|---|---|
| GCSE-equivalent evidence | SAT 1290, or another listed option | Separate English/Mathematics/Science equivalency conditions |
| A-level-equivalent academic preparation | SAT 1290 is not a substitute for this whole route | High School Diploma GPA 3.0 plus required AP/dual-enrollment/college-level subject combination |
| AP-only subject grades by offer band | No total SAT replacement stated here | A*A*A*/A*A*A: four APs at 5; A*AA/AAA: 5,5,5; AAB: 5,5,4; ABB: 5,4,4 |
